Clay Aiken sings When Doves Cry

On the Kelly Clarkson/Clay Aiken tour, this is what one reporter wrote in Miami:



It's always gratifying to watch an artist display growth. In this regard, this first coheadlining tour from American Idol stars Kelly Clarkson, season one winner, and Clay Aiken, season two runner-up, proved the TV reality show just may be capable of unleashing genuine artists after all.

Need proof? Aiken sang Prince's 1984 classic When Doves Cry. It would seem impossible to find two people with less in common than wholesome Aiken, a singer some have called ''vanilla,'' and randy Prince, who used to perform in bikini underwear while simulating copulation.

True, both have spoken of spirituality, but Prince has always merged sex into the equation. ''Animals strike curious poses / They feel the heat, the heat between me and you,'' Aiken sang, grinding a bit against his background singer.

The display was probably sexy only to Aiken's devoted fans who run all ages, but that's beside the point. He sang his unlikely selection extremely well, revealing the gospel roots of the tune by opening it as a ballad amid hearty piano chords, and then taking it to a rousing finish.

"When Doves Cry" is not a Broadway showtune. Hence Clay cannot sing it. This is a mathematical certainty, expressed by the equation:

CLAY = (SHOULD'VE STUCK TO KARAOKE)^2

You know how there are words for perverse physical attractions like necrophilia (erotic attraction to dead people) and bestiality (sex with animals)? Somebody needs to come up with a word for when Clay Aiken dry humps the hired help on stage. That's just plain nasty!
